Click here for more information Summary results of Diagnostic tools survey
Scope: 3. Outline, Contributor: *Mr Mike Morrison
In early June 2006 I asked members of TrainerBase & UKHRD to help me with a piece of market research. This was a simple and short survey looking at types of diagnostic tools people used, whether training was a pre-requisite for use, and explored preferences for durations and days that training would 'best' be run. The attached resource draws no conclusions; however it does present the findings of the key parts of the survey along with the actual question asked. If any reader has any particular questions please contact me.
